"This is a good starting point for a renovation."

Description

A couple of brothers purchased the VW bus in the spring of 1992. During the summers of the 1990s and 2000s, the bus was used for occasional vacation trips. Before the brothers bought it, the bus had various owners. The metre has most likely turned once, bringing the overall mileage to little over 150,000 kilometres. The bus is truck registered and has approval for cargo storage boxes. The bus also comes with non-original camping equipmen. Because the bus is a truck classified as a van, it can only carry two persons (the driver and one passenger).
During the autumns and winters, the bus was always housed dry beneath a canvas in a barn with timber floors. It is in essentially the same condition as when they purchased it 30 years ago.
The car was last inspected in 2009, when a re-inspection was required owing to rust in the left front axle beam and left rear frame. These rust attacks must still be addressed. The horn is broken (works on and off).
A prior user has repainted the bus (inadvertently) in a blue colour that is identical to the bus's original colour. A previous owner fitted a plexiglass sunroof in the 1980s. The brothers believe it is now time for a VW enthusiast to take over and restore the bus.


2017: brakes were inspected and all lighting was checked.
All gasoline lines and hoses were updated in 1992.
The brothers have provided regular service, including oil changes. According to the owner, the engine and transmission are in good working order but had start to leak from the fuel pump.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The engine and transmission are in good working order, however the engine runs low during our visit, most likely owing to petrol leaking at the fuel pump.

  • Interior condition:

    Interior is worn, but the dashboard is in good condition with no signs of age or dry cracks (see images). The mice, on the other hand, have feasted on the headrests.
    There is also self-made camping equipment provided, as seen in the images.

  • Exterior condition:

    Older repainting. The left front axle beam and the left rear frame are rusted. Rust also appears on the wings corners and roof drains. Tires with dry cracks, as shown in the photographs.

  • General condition:

    With a little work, this VW bus can become a nice rolling renovation project.

Facts about the model

VW-bussen som också kallades typ 2 (Bubblan var typ 1) kom i ny förbättrad (T2) version 1968 med välvd framruta och mer plats framtill. Bättre fram och bakvagn och större sidorutor. Denna modell kallas för Bay-window utomlands tackvare sin välvda framruta. T2-modellen kom att uppdateras under åren och byggdes i tolv år fram till 1980 då den ersattes av efterföljaren T3 (dessa kallas för fyrkantsbussar).
Idag är dessa T2-bussar eftertraktade hobbybilar världen över och används till semesterresor, camping, bröllopskörningar och event. T2-bussen är mycket mer lättkörd och bekväm än föregångaren T1 så den har ökat mycket i popularitet och värde de senaste åren.
